I am obsessed with Gen X angst. I believe that no generation of angsty young adults did it better than those post-Reagan/post-Thatcher 20-somethings in the early 1990s. This week, I watched two angsty British Gen Xer movies: Trainspotting and Naked. The former is much funnier than the latter, but they both convey that sense of …

Gen X Memes For Folks Who Still Remember The 80s

Fabulous Britney Spears Memes for Top 40 Lovers Who Know She’ll Always Be the Princess of Pop
If you lived through the 90’s, there’s on denying that every tabloid, every top 40 radio station, and every VH1 special was OBSESSED with Britney Spears– and so were we.

20+ Generation X Memes For The Whatever Generation
If there’s anything that Generation X is known for, it’s for being the best generation of angsty teenagers. Sure, Baby Boomers had their hippie streak, but everything they’ve done since has been so chronically uncool it’s basically ruined their generational reputation. Millennials are, for the most part, kind of try-hards. They were not particularly known …
